Gethyllis ciliaris ssp. longituba

Can be confused with Gethyllis britteniana. Gethyllis ciliaris ssp. longituba makes offsets while  Gethyllis britteniana does not. I had the name wrong initially as can be see from the URL of the larger pictures.

Flowering around Christmas at Leopoort Nursery Oudtshoorn.
Gethyllis ciliaris has the style in the middle of the flower unlike a number of other species that have the female part on the side.


      Flower not fully developed yet. Style not visible.



Same flower now fully developed.
